No Longer a Pinterest Addict

How do I start this post? Do I just come out and say I don’t go on Pinterest anymore? Or at least very much? Or do I explain that all the joy has gone out of trying new pins because Pinterest is not the same as it was? I guess I could do both – and some of the other… Read More

Powder Room Makeover

Do you want to see what we’ve been up to over here? All the major, can’t-actually-live-without-it construction at Lagoon Landing has been done for a while now. Things slowed down in terms of the details until we sold the White House because, well, the budget wasn’t big enough to keep going! Now that we’ve sold that house, we’ve been able… Read More

Fantastic Five: Kitchen Inspiration

Renovating Lagoon Landing has me trolling Pinterest for ideas for every part of the house, especially the kitchen. So much goes into the design of a kitchen that deciding on the little details gets overwhelming without some inspiration. These are my five favorite kitchens this week. Room For Tuesday – their new kitchen is a stunner! I love the shine… Read More

Low Carb Recipes I’ve Tried

Lagoon Landing – Our Newest Adventure

We bought a house… again. I know, I know… didn’t we just buy a house a couple of years ago? Yes, we did. And although we love our current house, especially its location on the intracoastal, we have decided that it is ridiculously large for our rapidly shrinking family. 5300 square feet, six bedrooms, six bathrooms, a library/office – it’s… Read More

Can You Paint over Granite Counters?

Updating Granite Countertops Using Paint – Have you ever wondered if you could update your granite counters without having to replace them? I did, and was able to give them new life when I updated them to look like faux marble counters. Before you say it’s ridiculous to paint granite, please know that it was not my first choice (which… Read More

Does Apple Cider Vinegar Cure Colds?

  Last week, I was in San Fransisco at the Pinterest In the Making Conference. It was amazing – the city, the conference, the hotel, the people… one of my very favorite cities ever! Then, after a six hour plane ride, I got home and ended up with a doozy of a head cold, or as it happens to affect… Read More

Primp and Pamper Bathroom Reveal

I can’t believe that it’s already Bathroom Reveal Week for the Primp and Pamper Bathroom Refresh blog hop! I still am amazed at all the great sponsors that Jewel was able to pull together for us, and so grateful that I was able to join such an amazing group of ladies in this hop. If you’re joining me here from… Read More
